Less wheel spin going from a 2nd gear roll but if you clutch kick, the tires spin like crazy. I should dyno this setup before i stick my GT3567R setup on. I raced a new M5 on the highway last weekend and I pulled around 6 car lengths from 60mph to 120mph. Guy was pretty surprised. My setup is pretty close to Brian W. except i have a P&P Head, Valve Job, and Ichiba Vers. II Exh. Mani.
Im not a really big fan of the .86 on stock displacement for this reason.

Peak torque for a lot of t3/t4 cars Ive tuned comes on before this even with high duration cams (like 272).

But personally I feel the benefit of having a bottom mount with a T28 trim family wheel is to have it very fast spooling and torque building-style of power band.

I would wager that a properly tuned GT3071R with .63 housing will poop all over the .86 housing 2871R.

note exibit A



car made about 375 whp on a dynojet , but just note the point where the curve builds to peak torque.

and compare it to most .86 graphs, this is also a GT3076R which is even larger and mis-matched wheels on the CHRA
